April is Esophageal Cancer Awareness Month. This little known cancer is spreading!

Be aware of these facts:
-Esophageal cancer (adenocarcinoma) increased 733% in the past 40 years.

-Chronic heartburn, among other symptoms can increase the risk of esophageal cancer.

-Symptoms often occur once cancer spreads and is difficult to treat

-No routine screenings exist to improve early detection of esophageal cancer.
